Chen Xing hadn't taken good shots before, and they were all shots in the nature of playing tickets. The main reason is that there is a first-person perspective provided by the system, and the clarity and stability are perfect, Chen Xing has been using him to cut travel vlogs, and he doesn't shoot much.

But photography and videography are also the same. From taking photos to shooting, it can't even be said to be cross-border, and the gap in the middle only needs to be slightly familiar, and it can be reversed quickly.

It's not uncommon for a well-known photographer to become a so-and-so director. Professor Nobel was like that, he used to be a photographer, and then from a certain point onwards, he became a well-known documentary filmmaker.

Fortunately, Chen Xing didn't need to make such a quick decision. Continue reading and go to Closeriedess to meet Ellie the next day.

Closeriedes is one of the most famous cafés in Paris, opened in 1847 and is now popular with tourists and artists alike, with a décor that resembles an old tavern.

The interior of the café is a little dimly lit due to a shed built on the outside of the café with a lot of flowers planted in it, which blocks the light.

This should be deliberate, as the little orange light isn't very bright, so it's dim enough to make out the road under your feet, but that's about it.

Chen Xing saw Ellie Jie in the corner of the wall, and there was another person sitting next to her. I couldn't see it clearly from a distance, Chen Xing and Ellie said hello when they sat down, and then went to see the person sitting next to her, and then they were stunned, and asked uncertainly: "...... are you" She quickly stretched out her hand: "Hello, Sophie Marceau, I'm very happy to see you here." Chen Xing shook hands with her, and the whole person was still dumbfounded.

Is it true? It's true! Did I see a living Sophie Marceau? Chen Xing mentioned a point to Dellin before, he said that in Huaxia, Sophie Marceau's popularity is several times higher than that of Ellie, which is not an exaggeration.

Even people of Chen Xing's age know her person. Haven't seen her films, haven't seen clips of her films?

Such a big star, sitting in front of me now? Oh my! Chen Xing's face was shocked, and it lasted for half a minute before returning to normal.

Sophie Marceau and Ellie are very understanding. They have seen too many expressions like Chen Xing, every time they go out to a party, after people find out that it is themselves, those people will have Chen Xing's unbelievable expressions, to be honest, they are still a little dark in their hearts.

Chen Xing quickly recovered his expression management.

"My name is Xing Chen." Sophie Marceau nodded: "I know you, I came for you." Ellijie was smiling and drinking coffee on the side, without interrupting the conversation between the two, she asked Chen Xing to come out in addition to thanking him for the photos he took for herself, and sending the thank you fee by the way, another purpose was to help her friend make an appointment with Chen Xing.

"For me?"

"Yes, I like your photos very much, very Chinese style." Sophie Marceau said. She has a good impression of Huaxia.

Some time ago, I also made a movie in Huaxia, and before I went, I thought it was the style in Chen Xing's photos, which had a little bit of the flavor of the previous Huaxia Hong Kong Island movies, but who knew that it was a bad movie.

… This bad movie is estimated to be released in October, I hope the French don't fall for it.

"Do you have time in the afternoon? Still in "Elle", I want to ask you to help me shoot a set of works with the same style as Ellie. ”

"I'd love to." Chen Xing immediately agreed. It's a real loss for Dellin to go to the UK to shoot a celebrity chef variety show, these two are his idols, and it is estimated that he will not think that when he leaves, Sophie Marceau will also come to this meeting with Ellie Jie today.

Chen Xing was very interested in the entertainment industry they were in, and asked a lot about filming movies. Sophie Marceau is also a very chatty person, and her actions are very exaggerated to describe the filming process to Chen Xing, especially about what he filmed in Huaxia some time ago.

Alyselle waited for the coffee in her cup to finish and said, "I still have a few tasks to do, so I won't go with you, Xing, I'll put the money on your bank card?" Does your card accept foreign currency? "If Huaxia's bank card does not handle foreign exchange business, the money received will be returned directly, and it can be accepted after processing, and it is still in euros when it is withdrawn, and it will not be exchanged for Huaxia currency.

"No problem, to be honest, I'm a little weak to accept this amount of money from you, I'm just going to visit the senior's work."

"This is my personal thank you." After asking Chen Xing for the card number, several people walked out of the café.

Ellie Jie skillfully put on a round-framed glasses, and Sophie Marceau put on a mask, and simply made a disguise.

In fact, it is enough for celebrities to do this, few people can recognize them directly, many people with masks and even hats can be recognized, and the cliff is that the shooting point has been prepared in advance, or it is being followed.

Wearing glasses may still be a bit risky, but wearing a mask can be recognized, which is really amazing. Ellijie drove away by herself, and Chen Xing took Sophie Marceau's car.

After getting in the car, Chen Xing said with a smile: "This is the first time I've taken a big star's car, won't you really be recognized?" Your fans are going to tear me apart, right? Sophie Marceau also sat in the driver's seat, took off her mask and said, "No, they will treat you as my illegitimate child." Chen Xing was stunned.

"No way, I'm not half-blooded, I don't have any blood from other countries."

"Because you're so good-looking."

"......" Sophie Marceau looked at the road, drove the car out first, and then said: "Didn't your country say something about me, a Western beauty with an oriental temperament?" Hahaha, then I think you're an Oriental handsome guy with a Western temperament, seriously, don't you really come to make movies? I've got a script here that suits you perfectly. ”

"You wrote that?"

"Yes, I've been writing this script for five years, and I'm going to shoot him in 2023 at the latest, do you want to try the role?"

"Forget it, I don't want to be a star." Isn't it good to be a traveler, a writer, or something, to walk around, eat, drink, and be merry?

When you are a star, you have no other entertainment than to make money, and you have to be careful not to be photographed by the paparazzi when you go out to play.

You have to be careful when you go to a bar, what's the point, if you are photographed, you may be exposed by fans.

… Now that there are so many sunspots as an Internet celebrity, can you still be a star? Half an hour later, Sophie Marceau drove the car downstairs to the "Elle" magazine, and as soon as she got out of the car, someone from inside the magazine came out to greet her, and the leader Chen Xing also knew a woman named Lidovia.

It seems that I have a good relationship with Senior Dellin. She didn't look at Chen Xing at all before, but this time, she actually smiled at Chen Xing, which was so flattering.

"Photographer Chen, long time no see."

"yes, long time no see." Chen Xing shook her hand. Chen Xing actually has no bad impression of her, in the process of shooting by herself, the people in ELLE magazine have always said that she has done a good job, but the Chanel team doesn't like it.

After that, they also left their contact information. After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Lidovia led a few people upstairs.

The person in charge of inviting the photographer and Sophie Marceau is still the eldest sister named Siludi Harding, whom Chen Xing knows, and they are moving the shooting equipment when Lidovia takes the two into the studio.

Shiludi looked back and saw them come in, and said warmly, "Welcome, Sophie Marceau, Chen." Chen Xing looked at these devices with some envy.

It costs a lot of money to open a studio like this, and Chen Xing adds all the money he has now, it should be enough to open such a studio, but what will he do after that?

But the days? And such a studio does not improve photography much. To go deeper, it is a debate between the pre-photography and the post-photography period.

These arguments could be said in a book. Chen Xing sat and watched, Sophie Marceau was on the phone to contact his assistant, and the people from the magazine were listening to Xiludi's command, and under Chen Xing's acquiescence, the studio was restored to the last shoot.

After Sophie Marceau finished calling, Chen Xing asked, "What other requirements do you have for the photos taken, the same as Ellie?" ”

"No, no, no, I like that kind of filter, but I want me in your photos to be who I am now." Now she?

Chen Xing fiddled with the camera and looked up at Sophie Marceau, who had already gone to change her clothes and was wearing a red dress.

She's not young anymore. Compared to Ellijie in her thirties, Sophie Marceau is in her fifties, her face and neck have traces left by the years, but she is still very beautiful, and her eyes are clear and she does not look like a fifty-year-old person at all.

Many female celebrities are afraid of aging, because their faces, once they age, they will be so ugly that they dare not see people.

Sophie Marceau's face obviously didn't move a knife, it was very natural. An employee who works in the studio plucks up the courage and says, "You used to be beautiful. "He is estimated to be a fan of Sophie Marceau.

As soon as these words came out, he was immediately pulled away by Xi Ludi, whose face changed greatly. Can you speak? Sophie Marceau sat on a chair and said, "I'm also beautiful now, I brought my favorite dress, you see." She stepped out of her chair and walked around the studio with a smile.

Then she sat back down and said, "I'm not afraid of aging, it's a gift from the years." "Her face is confident, strong.

Chen Xing's heart was touched by her words, and he hurriedly raised his camera to capture a few photos, this photo Chen Xing didn't even deal with the location, the light, and directly stood in his resting position and took it.

… Whether a photo is good or not depends not only on the model itself, but also on the mood of the photographer. It sounds very unscientific.

But some of the most moving works in the world today, none of them are taken by photographers with a calm mood, you can rely on technology to shoot the starry sky, you can rely on technology to shoot time-lapse, but how to rely on technology to shoot feelings?

Several employees who were still working wondered, "Huh? Is this the beginning of filming? ”

"No, you guys keep busy." Chen Xing looked down at the photo she had just taken, Sophie Marceau had just been hinted at her age, but there was no sense of loss in her eyes, and she had the same hope for the world as a teenager and a girl.

What charming eyes. Chen Xing thought of the movie she was most familiar with, a movie from forty years ago.

At that time, Sophie Marceau seemed to have just debuted and was in her teens? But if you overlap her current and teenage her, although her face has changed over the years, her eyes are still bright.

The French say that Sophie Marceau is their treasure. There's nothing wrong with that. Sophie Marceau brushed her hair and said, "Let me see the photos you took?" ”

"Yes, but this picture doesn't count as part of my work."

"No, of course not." Chen Xing walked over to find out the photo, but he couldn't see the photo too clearly in the viewfinder, and there were many icons blocking it, but this did not affect Chen Xing's optimistic attitude towards Sophie Marceau.

"I was right to ask you to take a picture." Sophie Marceau said with a smile after seeing the photo. Chen Xing was a little proud: "Of course." Xiludi looked at the high-spirited Chen Xing, and said with a smile: "When Sophie's group of works is released, maybe you will have to come to our magazine often, it is estimated that many female stars will like you very much." ”

"That's not bad." Chen Xing said with a smile. But if you laugh and laugh, you can't laugh. Who did he take pictures of?

Elegen was born in 1984. Sophie Marceau, born in 1966. I'm not going to be a friend of middle-aged and older women, am I?

I'm not the kind of photographer I want to be! The scene was set up in the next few minutes, according to Sophie Marceau's idea, behind her was a solid color background, Chen Xing still used the Hong Kong style filter, but not the same side lights as before Ellie, but the side headlights.

Normally, this kind of light would be glaring. But professional photographic equipment is expensive here, don't look at this kind of lamp can easily shine people's shadows on the background, but it is really not very dazzling.

Prepare for an hour and take photos for ten minutes. Chen Xing quickly finished filming this group of works. Xi Ludi looked at the photos taken by Chen Xing on the computer and nodded with satisfaction...... Sure enough, it's the style from last time, chic and handsome, but this color is not very eye-catching when used as a cover, and it will have to be redesigned when the time comes.

After finishing the shooting, Chen Xing put the camera in the camera bag, and Sophie Marceau was accompanied by an assistant to change her clothes.

After reading more than a dozen photos taken by Chen Xing, Xiludi came over and said: "We will choose one of this group of photos to make the cover of a certain issue of our future, we have studied and discussed it internally, your shooting fee, we set it at 5000 on the cover and 1800 on the inside page, how about it?" ”

"Yes." Among commercial photographers, this money is also considered to be in the middle and high grades. Many of the students in their school's photography class, in the fourth and fifth grades, are engaged in commercial photography, and a photo costs about 300 yuan, even if it is a cover, it is only 8 or 900, not more than 1,000 euros.

Of course, these are all small magazines, and they can't afford to produce more. There are very few people like Chen Xing who have climbed to the sky in one step and have been directly invited to top magazines for shooting.

Xi Ludi didn't mention the signing of the contract, she had asked Dellin before, and she also knew that Chen Xing's ambition was not here, so it would be better if he was a freelance photographer, and if the people invited liked Chen Xing's shooting style, then they would contact Chen Xing at that time.

It's been two hours since I left the magazine. Chen Xing got another income, thinking about where he should have a good meal in the evening, or can he invite his roommates to eat together?

Forget it, men, ask Hedwig when the time comes. He was sitting in the back seat of the car, driven by Sophie Marceau's assistant, a young girl in her twenties, with freckles on her face, Chen Xing didn't understand why some Europeans and Americans thought freckles were cute.

Sophie Marceau was in the co-pilot, looking at the souvenir given to her by the magazine...... A few freshly washed out photos.

"So I'm so old, and I still have a lot of things to do." She said suddenly. The assistant lady hurriedly said, "Where are you old?" ”

"What's so bad about being old? I'm just an old man, a turtle that has been crawling on the world for a hundred years. ”
